Form & Verdict

Regressed last season but was seemingly boosted by first-time blinkers when close second at Ffos Las (2m4f, good; several flights omitted) last month; still on a very good mark, but there are no guarantees the blinkers will continue to have an effect.

Form & Verdict

Triple Flat winner who came good over hurdles at seventh attempt, with clearcut success at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) this month; 5lb higher today but ran well at this track in April (2m2f) and could plausibly have untapped potential over today's trip.

Form & Verdict

Won twice over hurdles at Hereford (2m5f, good to firm/good) in autumn and returned from six-month layoff with easy Flat win in Jersey last month; needs to prove he can cope with a mark this high but still considered.

Form & Verdict

Became very inconsistent over fences, and was just a resectable third of six when back over hurdles at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) this month; others have more persuasive profiles.

Didn't really take to chasing last season but runner-up twice since reverting to hurdling this spring; nudged up 2lb for run at Worcester (2m7f, good) 24 days ago but still well handicapped on older form; respected.
